New laptop!

[13CentKiller]

Ok, I would usually say "Yea downgrade to XP"

In this case? No!:rtfm:

It stuffs it up. And HP does NOT support XP from their website. You need to go to all the manufactures sites and get the drivers from there. It took me all day.

To whoever says it runs FL perfectly? I can't get smooth frames in "High" I have to have it on medium low, and even then I still get lag. Its 256MB GDDR2 /6150.

Also, the 6150 uses DX10 for vista, and even though you can get the windows XP drivers for it. The operating system will not be able to control the display inverter properly. So when for example, the screen switches off to save power, when you try turn the screen back on, it will become all distorted, liney and fickery. Not good for the screen either. Vista is the only OS that can control the display inverter in my laptop properly.

Its AMD 1.8GHz processor is not enough. I'm very disappointed and don't know what all the hype was about around the new AMD X2 Dual Core Mobile processor...

So yea...:cool:
